“I have signed an order that introduces a new staff position in each brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine – an authorized representative for the procurement of goods, works and services.

Meanwhile, the State Logistics Operator, which is responsible for supplying food to the Armed Forces, has classified its food procurement data for the first time.
